Sarah has composed a series of pieces, ONE FOR EVERY INTERVAL in the major scale, starting with a 2nd and going all the way to an octave, as well as some exercises and warmups to begin training your ear for harmony. Listen to the videos and try the exercises with a seasoned educator and composer. Then practice with the backing tracks at your own pace. The more you sing and listen to these pieces, the quicker you will develop a memory for each interval. The idea is to sing some of the exercises for a few minutes everyday, and eventually you will begin to develop a memory for the sounds of the intervals (and the various rhythms). Training your ear doesn’t happen over night, but with a little effort you will get better and better at hearing and reproducing the intervals. This will aid you in sight reading better, as well as figuring out the melodies you hear on the radio (and in your head as a song-writer). With a little practice and perseverance, you will soon be able to start identifying the intervals in those melodies, as well as the corresponding chords.

“Intervals” truly are the building blocks of melody and harmony, and once you can begin to understand their unique qualities and hear them internally, finding chords and harmonies will come more easily to you. This course is designed to get you seeing, hearing and singing intervals (the spaces between notes in the tunes we love) and learning how they relate to chords and work together to create unforgettable songs and melodies. 

Learn how the scale and intervals work in a step by step process designed to get you internalizing pitch and harmony even when you are not singing or playing! Learn what bass clef chords look and sound like on the piano as well, and if you have a keyboard, try to play along on some of the pieces!

pdfs of the sheet music are included and can be downloaded and printed out to further aid your note reading skills. There are also many backing tracks for independent practice. Let’s start training your ear and developing your innate musical gifts! And as always, if you try the courses and are confused in any way, please reach out to Sarah at her Nashville SingPlayStudios school (which you can follow on insta) with any questions and concerns.
